Magic wand

Wand, Wands, Fairy wand

A magic wand puts power into one small, simple object: point it, wave it and something changes. In a dream it's less about the magic than about who holds it. Holding a wand yourself raises a question of responsibility: what would you change if you could, and should you? Someone else waving one over you, like a fairy godmother, may show you're hoping for a helping hand to turn things around. A wand carved or decorated by hand can reflect an ability you're developing, something that only works because you learned to use it.
